Porsche 924 931 Touch Up Paint (29 OEM Colors)

The Color Breakdown

Porsche didn't hold back with the 924 931, giving us a palette of 29 colors that perfectly captured the transition from disco-era vibes to 80s precision. You've got everything from the "perfectly 1979" Mocha Brown and the earthy Inari Silver Metallic to the vibrant Minerva Blue Metallic. Whether your car looks like a piece of chocolate or a high-speed sky, they really went for it with the variety.

What to Watch For

Before you start, you need to find your "birth certificate"-the paint code. On the 931, this is usually a white paper sticker hidden in the rear cargo area under the carpet, often near the spare tire. If it's not there, check the underside of the hood or the first page of your owner's manual.

In terms of wear, these cars have a "nose-first" personality. Because the 931 sits so low, the front apron and those iconic hood vents are magnet-level targets for road debris. If you have a solid color like Guards Red, you might notice the paint looking a bit "chalky" or faded on the roof and hood-think of it as a Porsche sunburn. If you have a metallic, keep an eye out for "the flakes." The clear coat on these older metallics can sometimes decide it's time to retire, leaving small matte patches that look like dry skin. Don't worry, it's nothing a little patience can't improve.

Driveway Repair Tip

If you're working with one of those gorgeous metallics like Diamond Silver or Helios Blue, your biggest secret weapon is the shake. These paints use tiny metal flakes that like to take a nap at the bottom of the bottle. Shake your touch-up pen or bottle for at least two full minutes-long after you think you're done. This wakes up the sparkles so they actually show up on your car instead of staying in the tube.

When filling a chip, think "thin and patient." Instead of one big glob that looks like a zit, apply two or three thin layers, letting each one dry for 20 minutes. This builds the paint up to the same level as the rest of the hood, making that repair virtually disappear into the finish.
